which three of the following directives are guidelines for composing a preparation outline?

• identify the central idea.
• write using a block - paragraph format.
• state the specific purpose of your speech.
• label the introduction, body, and conclusion.

Explanation:

A preparation outline for a speech focuses on structuring the core elements of the speech. Identifying the central idea anchors the content, stating the specific purpose clarifies the speech's goal, and labeling the introduction, body, and conclusion organizes the speech's structure. Block-paragraph format is not used for preparation outlines, which rely on hierarchical, labeled/numbered structure instead.

Answer:

• Identify the central idea.
• State the specific purpose of your speech.
• Label the introduction, body, and conclusion.
